plants and zombies make their tabletop gaming debut in
RISK®: Plants vs. Zombies™ Collector’s Edition.
Produced by USAopoly under license from Hasbro, Inc. and in
conjunction with PopCap, this all new experience takes the
hilarious characters from the mega-hit video game Plants vs.
Zombies into an awesome tabletop battle for suburban
domination!

This completely customized take on two-player RISK offers a
double-sided gameboard and three head-to-head ways to play: Tower
Defense, Mission Objective, or Total Domination. With a detailed
map of the original town of Brainsborough on one side and the
familiar Plants vs. Zombies backyard from the video game on the
other, players opt to be plants or zombies and then pick their
battlefield. Fighting for their very survival, players engage in
skirmishes, battle for three different victory conditions, and play
the classic RISK game mode, vying to take over the whole board.

In this mulchifying take on the traditional RISK game, armies
have been replaced by Peashooters and Threepeaters who attempt to
prevent the consumption of human brains everywhere by the
ever-approaching Brown Coat Zombies and Zombie Mobs.

With all-new Plants vs. Zombies content and locations, combined
with easy-to-learn, fast-paced two-player action, RISK: Plants vs.
Zombies Collector’s Edition is a whole new way to have fun
while protecting brains. Or eating them.

The 2-player RISK: Plants vs. Zombies Collector’s game is
for ages 10+ at a suggested retail price of $29.99. It is available
now at PvZStore.com and Amazon, and will arrive shortly at
Kohl’s, Go! Games, ThinkGeek and other North American
specialty retailers.
